McGonagle Gets Flushed Out
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Scott Davis raised to 55,000 from the hijack. Lock Nguyen called from right next to him in the cutoff.
James McGonagle three-bet to 155,000 on the button. Davis folded. Nguyen called.
When the flop hit 3♥5♣9♥, Nguyen checked. McGonagle moved all in.
Nguyen made the call.
James McGonagle: J♦J♣
Lock Nguyen: 10♥8♥
McGonagle was in decent shape with the overpair to the board and his hand got better with a set on the turn of the J♠.
But the river told another story, as Nguyen's flush came in with the 4♥.
